CHARLES F. PEASE, OF BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS.

SHADE-PULL.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 280,507, dated July 3,1883.

Application filed May 19, 1883. (No model.)

To @ZZ whom, t may concern:

Be it known that I, CHARLES F. PEAsE, of Boston, in the county ofSuffolk, State of Massachusetts, have invented a certain new and usefulImprovement in Shade-Pulls, of which the following is a descriptionsufficiently full, clear," and exact to enable any person skilled in theart or scienceto which said invention appertains to make and use thesame, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a partof this specification, in which Figure l is a side elevationrepresenting the pull attached to the shade and in use; and Fig. 2,alike view, some of the parts being represented in section.

Like letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the differentfigures of the drawings.

My invention relates to that class of shadepulls which are designed tobe attached directly to the lower end or stick of the shade 5 and itconsists in a novel construction and arrangement of the parts, ashereinafter more fully set forth' and claimed, by which a better-lookingand more desirable article of this character is produced than is now inordinary use.

The nature and operation of the improvement willbe readily understood byall con- -versant with such matters from the following explanation, itsextreme simplicity rendering an elaborate description unnecessary.

In the drawings, A represents the body of the pull; B, the covering, andC the attaching-cords.

The body is preferably composed of wood and provided with the ornamentalends D.

The covering is composed of velvet, plush, or any similar material, andentirely envelops the body between the bosses c of the ends D, beingattached thereto in any proper manner.

The supporting-cords C pass around the body outside of the covering B,and through 45 the rings m, being tied or secured under the tufts orrosettes d. The rings m are provided with screws f, which are screwedinto the lower edge of the shade-stick E, and by which the pull isattached to the shade and supported.

Between the stick E and rings m there are bell-shaped rosettes h,composed of silk or any other suitable material for covering the rings,and beneath the body A there is a cord, G, running along the under sideof said body through the cords C, by which it is supported, its endsbeing joined at c and provided with the tassels H. The cord G andtassels H are designed as ornaments to the main pull, but

*myself to the use of the ornamental ends D,

tassels H, cord G, rosettes h, or to the method shown for securing thepull to the stick, as these may be changed or omitted without materiallydeparting from the spirit of my invention. 1

Having thus explained my improvement, what I claim isl. In a shade-pull,the body A, eitherwith or without the ornamental ends D, said body beingcovered with plush, velvet, or other suitable material, and attached tothe shadestick E by the cords C and screws f, or equivalent means,substantially as set forth.

2. The improved shade-pull herein described, the same consisting of thebody A, covering B, cords C, rings m, screws f, and cord G, constructed,combined, and arranged to operate substantially as shown and described.
